    Diego Corrales would have put fear in today's champs

    Diego Corrales would have made the lighweight champs of today **** their pants. Brandon Rios who? Richard Abril who? Ricky Burns who? Antonio Demarco? Miguel Vasquez??

    I know Brandon is out of the picture at that weight , but he was considered the "destroyer" at that weight not too long ago by some people. (Not me)

    Talk about diluted talent.

    What about "El Cepillo"? And J.L Castillo. Would have toyed with those kids.

    Think Mikey would consider moving up? Or Gamboa , he would be AWOL in every press conference.

    And I'm not even talking "All Time" talent at that weight.

    Lightweight division sucks. It's depressing. Prime Juan Diaz would give everyone absolute hell. Here are the last lightweight champs

    Corrales
    Castillo
    Mayweather
    Johnston
    Mosley

      Agreed - it's really diluted. Stevie Johnston would've had a field day. I'd take Cesar Bazan over everyone, including Rios. I remember watching Alvarado come up on Telemundo/Telefutura and never would've ever imagined him on HBO but the talent pool just isn't what it once was.

                  Spadafora is so overrated. He BARELY beat Sosa and should've lost to Dorin (Gatti stopped Dorin in 4 minutes)

                    135 Shane and Oscar were just terrible monsters. Scarier than Chavez SR at this weight and Duran level IMO
